He just rode in from Nevada
|
As the leaves turned brown
|
With the dust from off the desert
|
He drifted into town
|
It was easy to see he was a gambler
|
And the ladies all knew what he was after
|
|
He was the man in black
|
Nobody knew why he came
|
The man in black
|
Does anyone here know his name?
|
|
He made his bed down by the river
|
There he spent his days
|
One by one all the ladies fell beneath his gaze
|
They knew very well they were in danger
|
But they were under the spell of a stranger
|
|
He was the man in black
|
Nobody knew why he came
|
The man in black
|
Does anyone here know his name?
|
|
Can you tell me where he's hiding and
|
Was there a young woman with him?
|
She is my daughter
|
I've come to fetch her
|
And when I find her
|
I swear that man's gonna die
|
|
He was the man in black
|
Nobody knew why he came
|
The man in black
|
Does anyone here know his name?
|
|
He was the man in black
|
Nobody knew why he came
|
The man in black
|
Does anyone here know his name?
|
|
He was the man in black
|
Nobody knew why he came
|
The man in black
|
Does anyone here know his name?
|
